Holiday Layout
I made a new layout for the holiday season. *hehe* I made it last December 3, 2004. Thanks to Sanrio for the adorable snow Hello Kitty. It looks good in both IE and Mozilla since I modified the original css to suit both. 
The tagline “A Perfect Christmas” was inspired by hunbun’s favorite Christmas song by Jose Mari Chan.
My idea of a perfect Christmas
Is to spend it with you
In a party
Or dinner for two
Anywhere would do
Celebrating the yuletide season
Always lights up our lives
Simple pleasures are made special too
When their shared with you
Looking through some old photographs
Faces of friends we’ll always remember
Watching busy shoppers rushing about
In the cool breeze of December
Sparkling lights, all over town
Children’s carols in the air
By the Christmas tree
A shower of stardust on your hair
I cant think of a better Christmas
Than my wish coming true
And my wish is you’d let me spend my whole life with you.

i love this new layout! i’m too lazy to change mine just yet, haha!
oh, jose mari chan’s christmas song… i remember singing this as a child, along with this other song (i don’t remember the title) it goes: “whenever i see boys and girls selling lanterns on the street…” hahahaha… oh, those good ol’ filipino christmas songs… my absolute fave christmas song of all time is a filipino christmas song, btw, but it goes, “pasko na naman o kay tulin ng araw…” 
merry christmas gretch!
